Practical LGB inclusion training covering sexual orientation, inclusive language, homophobia, biphobia, heterosexism and Equality Act responsibilities.
Lesbian, gay and bisexual people can experience exclusion, assumptions, stereotyping and harassment in workplaces and services. This practical course helps participants understand those experiences and build the confidence to respond appropriately.
In‑house courses are private sessions delivered exclusively for a group of people from your organisation, on a date that suits you, with the option to tailor the content to your staff and setting.
Open courses are public Equality and Diversity UK training dates that anyone can book onto, ideal when you only need training for one or two people.
Delegates explore sexual orientation, respectful language, homophobia, biphobia and heterosexism, including the ways bias can be embedded in everyday conversations, decisions, policies and services. The course uses discussion, realistic scenarios and reflective activities to connect equality responsibilities with day-to-day practice.
This is a specialist course about sexual orientation and the experiences of LGB people. Organisations seeking a broad introduction across a wider range of identities may prefer our LGBTQIA+ Inclusion Training. Those requiring a detailed focus on trans inclusion should choose our Trans Inclusion and Gender Reassignment Awareness Training.

Participants leave with clearer language, greater confidence and practical tools for recognising barriers, challenging discrimination and supporting LGB colleagues, customers and communities.
This course is suitable for employees, managers, supervisors, HR and people professionals, equality leads, customer-facing teams, educators, health and care staff, and anyone who wants to improve LGB inclusion in their organisation or service.
The course is delivered as a one‑day workshop using a mixture of methods, including group exercises, discussions and practical activities. Training is interactive, engaging and designed to build confidence and understanding.
All our courses are tailored to ensure the training reflects your organisation’s goals and priorities.
The course can be delivered face-to-face or online via Zoom or Teams.
